It’s peak hot girl summer over on the East Coast, and by that I mean I am melting. It’s a sweltering mix of dry heat and thick humidity and I will take any relief I can get. I recently tried a new water mist sunscreen, which vaguely reminded me at first glance of my mother’s Evian spray from back in the day. Apparently, it’s still a popular beauty item. However, my new perk-me-up has SPF and smells subtly like a…
Some Fridays feel like one and some don’t (especially when in quarantine) but today is one of the best kind of Fridays. First off, it’s July and summer is giving us all some much needed life. Also, there are some pretty amazing sales this weekend that we can skip crowds and wearing masks to shop right here. I also had to share a sweet piece about giving compliments that really resonated with me on a few levels, especially as a…
Part of my love for resort wear is deeply rooted in my distaste for being uncomfortable in high temps. Whenever I’m enjoying downtime and it’s hot out, I’m usually wearing a coverup even if I’m not swimming or going to the beach. Case in point: I was actually on my way to dinner in this pic.

I was dressed as a walking rainbow. Turns out, he was actually poking fun at my voluminous sleeves, but I took it as a compliment. Here is the dress in question:…
It’s officially peak mutiny in my house, and I’m going to have the scars to prove it. After taking a metal Matchbox Wonder Woman car (the irony) to my cartilage courtesy of my toddler, I’m stitched up and fine but permanently cosmetically scathed. A stylish friend suggested I start searching for an ear cuff, and now I feel like I need one even if I come out on the other side of this without a keloid. Here are the 10…
